Introducing the SteelSeries Apex, a gaming keyboard designed to enable users to react quickly, move strategically, and customize performance for every game. Beyond just choosing from 16.8 Million colors, the Apex features SteelSeries ActiveZone lighting, a visual support tool allowing the user to independently customize each of its five zones and in multiple macro layers.

Light 'Em Up
Featuring 16.8 million color illumination in five independent zones and eight levels of intensity that you can configure differently for each of your macro layer, for endless customization.

Faster Return to WASD
Small bumps on the W-key provides a faster return to WASD. When you quickly have to type a message or execute a command, we want to make sure that you find your way back to WASD as quickly as possible without having to look.

ActiveZone Lighting
The Apex features five independent color zones that are each capable of 16.8 million colors. These can be customized to create a unique color scheme for each of your macro layers. This allows you to quickly determine which macro layer you have enabled and help you find groups of your macros according to their color. Imagine a yellow theme for harvest macros, blue theme for defend macros, red for attack macros and more. The possibilities are limitless.

Extra Arrows
We added two arrow keys for a bit of extra directional convenience.

Disable Windows Key
Simply hold down the SteelSeries key and tap the Windows key to disable it. This simple key combination will disable and enable the windows key without the need for software or complicated menus.
